 Your generosity is greatly appreciated = ).

 Thanks.  My first digital camera and my first time using it.  The outcome wasn't too bad.  I'm learning and having fun at the same time, there's nothing better.

		| | Them are not ducks! Them are Canada Geese! Good eye for cathing this flock, but the lighting is not too pleasing. |

		| | Nice pic...mighty Canada Geese would be a more appropriate name though, since that's what they are. |

		| | They're Geese!!  It's a shame that the group in the foreground are walking away from you.  You've got a nice depth of focus though. |

		| | Minor point but I don't think those are ducks ... look like Canadian Geese to me! | 
 |

		| | I'm no expert but seems to me that those are not ducks, but rather Canada Geese. |

		| | Technically speaking are these ducks or geese?  They sure are mighty...they walk on water.  This is a really neat photo.  I love the focus. So clear so far.  Great shot.  Beautiful.  Well done. |
